USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

My goal was to create a selection of shell scripts that can be used to cross-compile a Linux From Scratch for a Raspberry Pi. Even though buildtool-ng, buildroot and Yocto are quite popular, I found them very hard to comprehend.

I want to make the scripts, I came up with, free and open, I do not know under which license. (Yet). In the meantime, enjoy the first (prelimianary) release.

Known bugs: Script 2 will require user interaction, please set the cross compilers to WHEREVERYOUARERUNNINGIT/Tools/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-. If you want to run them under OpenBSD, please patch the scripts to use 'gmake' instead of 'make'. As well as 'gtar' instead of 'tar'. Thank you.

The process of building GCC turned out to be more tedious than I thought. This release, however, can build it for the target platform.
Still not able to run under OpenBSD. The last script is hard coded to /dev/sdf for the SD card. Not enough packages.

This is the first release which is close to being good enough.

This release saw the introduction of a new script, 3c_morepackages.sh. I simply wanted to perform some experiments with increasingly difficult libraries, so it is building ncurses and alsa. The documentation has gotten slightly better. Check it out!!

I realized this moring that there is a new version of the glibc out. I therefore decided to try if I could build it with the latest gcc. Turns out: It is possible. I took the liberty of extending the documentation, while I was at it.
